Pore size classification and prediction based on distribution of reservoir fluid volumes utilizing well logs and deep learning algorithm in a complex lithology by Hassan Bagheri, Reza Mohebian, Ali Moradzadeh, Behnia Azizzadeh Mehmandost Olya

“…To prognosticate NMR outputs (CBW, BVI, FFV) for these wells, a two-step deep learning (DL) algorithm is implemented. Initially, three feature selection algorithms (f-classif, f-regression, and mutual-info-regression) identify the conventional well logs most correlated to NMR outputs in well-A. …”

Metastatic neuroendocrine tumor with extensive bone marrow involvement at diagnosis: Evaluation of response and hematological toxicity profile of PRRT with 177Lu-DOTATATE by Sandip Basu, Rohit Ranade, Pradeep Thapa

“…The single patient who had a progressive disease also had a good symptomatic response in the initial 6 months from the first dose of PRRT. Despite the extensive bone marrow involvement, no hematological toxicity was observed (only one patient showed Grade I anemia), suggesting that PRRT is well-tolerated by this particular subgroup.…”

Physical Information Neural Network-Based Seepage Behavior Analysis of Earth and Rock Dams by XUE binghan, HUANG zhenhua, LEI Jianwei, FANG Hongyuan

“…This iterative process continues until convergence in the free-surface position is achieved, ultimately determining the steady-state seepage field.Results and Discussions　To validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, a homogeneous rectangular earth dam (10 m×10 m) with upstream and downstream water levels of 10 m and 2 m, respectively, and an impermeable bottom boundary is selected as the study case. After five iterations, the computed free surface demonstrates significant convergence: the mean square error (MSE) between the initial and first-iteration free surfaces is 0.10303, while the MSE between the fourth and fifth iterations reduces to 0.00105, indicating stable convergence toward the theoretical solution. …”
